Patrick opens this hour by marveling at how screens have transformed everyday life, from music to family dynamics, and he reflects on the near disappearance of kids outdoors. He fields calls on everything from the Knights of Columbus’ benefits and Catholic financial planning to the nuances of interfaith participation and school policies for children with same-sex parents, pausing to break down the Catholic response with candor and personal stories. Questions about doctrine, terminology, and the unique journey of exploring faith pepper the conversation, as Patrick balances humor with practical advice and an unflinching look at faith in today’s rapidly shifting culture.
